We are so happy to be on the cover @sarahhoelzl @amycaoart 🎉 The cover depicts the Three Fates, who manipulate the threads of life and death. The Fates are shown as three older women, unraveling the threads of the inactive X chromosome during aging. nature.com/nataging/volum…

New ENCODE4 long-read RNA-seq transcripts track for hg38 and mm10. Triplets (e.g. [1,1,3]) indicate start site, exon combination, and stop site for each transcript. Enrichment scores show how these change across tissue and cell line samples. Read more: genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/new…
Congrats @sarahhoelzl 🙌
Last month, we held the second edition of the EMBO | EMBL Symposium series 'The ageing genome: from mechanisms to disease' at EMBL Heidelberg and virtually. ⏳ #EESAgeing is a conference that brings together international researchers to continue the exchange on the…
🗞️Our June issue is live!📷 This month, we're featuring work on editing epigenetic age, somatic mutation, senescence, Alzheimer’s biomarkers and much more. Read it all here: nature.com/nataging/volum…
Why do women experience #aging-related diseases differently than men? A new study shows that with age, genes on the inactive X chromosome can reactivate – potentially influencing conditions like #dementia and #autoimmunity: go.tum.de/987255 #genetics 📷D. Andergassen
Online now!✨RESEARCH: @sarahhoelzl et al demonstrate that aging promotes reactivation of the inactive X chromosome in mice, and catalog escape genes using multi-omics @DAndergassen nature.com/articles/s4358… rdcu.be/ekm0I
